What's up with Dell's Bluetooth drivers? - Page 14

Hi, I have an Inspiron 9300 and recently did a fresh reformat (windows XP), the drivers of everything was wiped out. Now I am trying to install my bluetooth back, but there is nothing out there that I have downloaded and worked. I used the generic drivers from Dell Drivers but nothing worked. The messages would always say "No bluetooth compatible hardware found." I have it turned on in the bios. Can anyone point me to the direction of where I can get this fixed? Thanks.

what i don't understand is why the problem of dropping the mouse and kb occurs if xp/vista is clean installed. I have the 355 module, i swapped the hard drive, did a clean install of xp/vista dual boot and the problem occurs on both Os's. but if i put the original hard disk in, it works like a dream no problems whatsoever.

the dell utility partition has a couple of usb files do you think this could be responsible for the kb and mouse not being dropped if the original partitions are kept?

In order to get the set enabled for your laptops which is not the current download please do the following:
1) Identify the bluetooth module.
>Goto My computer right click and select manage
> Look in device manager to see which Toshiba bluetooth module is installed. Mine is the Toshiba 350 module

2) Download the latest driver update from Dell support website. There should be 1 file which is about 28MB which will replace the older Bluetooth Manager on the taskbar.
3) Upgrade latest MS Music Player11. Is XP Compliant. Size 25MB
Goto options> change speaker options to default to Toshiba
4) Pair up the device. I can get Stereo as well as the remote control buttons running.

I recently did a fresh install on my E1705 with XP. I have dell's 350 bluetooth card, and I decided to try Widcomm stack this time around. I am having some troubles though with my HT820 stereo headset. I am able to connect to the headset profile, but I cannot figure out how to make the thing connect to use the stereo profile. I have tried right clicking on the HT820 icon and selecting the connect to stereo option, but it won't connect. Does anybody have any ideas of what I should do?

I have also noticed that whenever I disable the bluetooth card with Fn+F2 and then enable it again, Widcomm will not find a local bluetooth card, so it will not work. I need to restart to get it to work again. What could be causing this? Thanks for your help guys.
